Why You Should Try Our Refried Beans

Beans are an essential pantry supply. They are also a delicious addition for outdoor activities as a healthy food package that fits right into your backpack or trail pack. You won’t need much time to prepare on the trail because they require minimal cooking.

Our bean mix contains pinto bean flakes, sea salt, and onions. Our pre-cooked refried beans are 100% natural, non-GMO, gluten-free and have no added preservatives or additives. Not only do the refried beans retain their nutritional value,1 they are great source of essential vitamins and minerals.

They have a long shelf life and can be stored for any emergency or inclement weather, especially if you live on the coast during hurricane season. When stored in proper conditions, they can last longer than 10 years. Apart from being tasty and easy to prepare, they are also a cheaper option. You can make just a little and store the remaining without the hassle of trying to remember an expiration date.

To prepare, add 1 part of boiling water to 1 part bean mix to rehydrate. Remember to remove the desiccant before eating. Cover and let stand about 3-5 minutes and they’ll be ready! Add a little cooking oil if desired. The consistency will vary according to your preferences. You don’t have to wait all day for them to cook, unlike raw beans from the grocery store.
